24 ;;; Commentary:
26 ;; This is a re-implementation of the setf machinery using a different
27 ;; underlying approach than the one used earlier in CL, which was based on
28 ;; define-setf-expander.
29 ;; `define-setf-expander' makes every "place-expander" return a 5-tuple
30 ;; (VARS VALUES STORES GETTER SETTER)
31 ;; where STORES is a list with a single variable (Common-Lisp allows multiple
32 ;; variables for use with multiple-return-values, but this is rarely used and
33 ;; not applicable to Elisp).
34 ;; It basically says that GETTER is an expression that returns the place's
35 ;; value, and (lambda STORES SETTER) is an expression that assigns the value(s)
36 ;; passed to that function to the place, and that you need to wrap the whole
37 ;; thing within a `(let* ,(zip VARS VALUES) ...).
39 ;; Instead, we use here a higher-order approach: instead
40 ;; of a 5-tuple, a place-expander returns a function.
41 ;; If you think about types, the old approach return things of type
42 ;; {vars: List Var, values: List Exp,
43 ;; stores: List Var, getter: Exp, setter: Exp}
44 ;; whereas the new approach returns a function of type
45 ;; (do: ((getter: Exp, setter: ((store: Exp) -> Exp)) -> Exp)) -> Exp.
46 ;; You can get the new function from the old 5-tuple with something like:
47 ;; (lambda (do)
48 ;; `(let* ,(zip VARS VALUES)
49 ;; (funcall do GETTER (lambda ,STORES ,SETTER))))
50 ;; You can't easily do the reverse, because this new approach is more
51 ;; expressive than the old one, so we can't provide a backward-compatible
52 ;; get-setf-method.
54 ;; While it may seem intimidating for people not used to higher-order
55 ;; functions, you will quickly see that its use (especially with the
56 ;; `gv-letplace' macro) is actually much easier and more elegant than the old
57 ;; approach which is clunky and often leads to unreadable code.
59 ;; Food for thought: the syntax of places does not actually conflict with the
60 ;; pcase patterns. The `cons' gv works just like a `(,a . ,b) pcase
61 ;; pattern, and actually the `logand' gv is even closer since it should
62 ;; arguably fail when trying to set a value outside of the mask.
63 ;; Generally, places are used for destructors (gethash, aref, car, ...)
64 ;; whereas pcase patterns are used for constructors (backquote, constants,
65 ;; vectors, ...).
67 ;;; Code:
69 (require 'macroexp)
71 ;; What we call a "gvar" is basically a function of type "(getter * setter ->
72 ;; code) -> code", where "getter" is code and setter is "code -> code".
